Get what you pay for. IMO. Who knows may turn out good in the future but seems like its just getting started and to many what ifs for me!

why would they not post some tests or specifications? Testing costs money. How are they supposed to afford $4000 of testing equipment with $99 rimfire cans? I agree the website could use some serious work, but there again a good website will cost thousands of dollars. |

The baffles look just like the baffles in my Gemtech Alpine, other than not being "caged".

Hmm Interesting...
But I see no way to buy it on their website. Only their facebook page mentions the price. |

I'm not sure why you'd take a risk on a new manufacturer that really isn't offering anything other than price. A major manufacturer can only costs another $100-200.

I agree the website could use some serious work, but there again a good website will cost thousands of dollars. What testing equipment costs $4000? Working and calibrated B&K 2209, the correct, calibrated 1/4" microphone with the correct pre-amp, a working and calibrated calibrator etc. It isn't cheap equipment. The 1/4" microphones are about 3/8" tall and 1/4" diameter and cost $1250 alone. The preamplifiers (the adaptor that attaches the microphone to the meter) are about $300. You might miraculously find someone selling a completely working system for less with all the right accessories, but otherwise $4000 is probably a reasonable ballpark figure. Equipment that is suitable for measuring a suppressed gunshot gets more expensive from there, so that is probably the baseline for testing equipment. There are a lot of cheap meters but they are as valuable as clocks that don't tell the correct time (junk). |

I met the CEO, Rob Elgie , at the Silencers Are Legal shoot outside of Dallas last month. He said that as an incentive to new dealers they will throw in a second suppressor to cover their transfer fee. They can use the suppressor as a demo, sell it, or keep it for themselves. I forgot about them until they contacted a buddy of mine that I was at the show with who had filled out one of their contact forms. Since he had already won a .22 suppressor in the raffle he passed the contact info on to me and I placed my order this afternoon. I figure for a total cost of only $299 I'll give the new guys a chance.

I agree the website could use some serious work, but there again a good website will cost thousands of dollars. I don't buy that. When I was in high-school, I designed a "good website" for the price of hosting it (about $10 a month). A good website doesn't need to be fancy, just convey information in a user-friendly manner. Embedded videos and a few "tables" are all that are needed for a suppressor website, imo. More than that, and you're just getting into fluffery that isn't necessary to convey product data. |

Lots of people have no desire/aptitude for DIY web design. And most DIY web design sucks. A good site does cost money. If I hadn't just bought 3 suppressors a couple of months ago I'd roll the dice on one of these. Even if they aren't great, they'll probably work well on rifles. The baffle design looks decent. |
